Where is the best place to pick up LED GU10's?

gap30 · Feb 17, 2013

Can anyone recommend anywhere to pick up up LED gu10's, i know where to get the cheap rubbish ones.

I mean something middle of the road that is half decent with no comebacks ie breaking after a week.

Sort of new to buying LED lamps as most customers are not happy to pay the prices for this type of lamp.

I am looking for say £5 - £6 each for a 4.5w for example.

Try tool station, noticed in their latest catalogue that they got some in there

Got some for £8+vat from my local wholesalers, they seem to be decent quality and supposed to do 50,000hrs. there are some cheap ones around on ebay etc but be wary of quality, theres a lot of cheap chinese rubbish about that wont last.

Maybe you can find some great deals of LED GU10 lamps in your place or nearby cities. You can also try to shop in the internet, for sure, you can find some great deals that you could choose from and in affordable prices.

Crompton and megaman are good middle of the road lamps. This is what I use.

Best I'd recommend are Phillips but they are around £18 a pop...

Stay away from deltech...

Are the ones with loads of tiny LEDs better than the ones with 4-6 big ones?

If you mean loads of low power LEDs (cluster) then they are total crap. The SMD ones (HUGE DISCOUNTS on GU10 LED Bulb 220 Lumens 45W Equiv) give a wider beam angle where the 3-6 big ones give a traditional narrower beam. They are as good as each other it just depends on the desired effect

Electa centre who I use stopping doing 21 smd , said too many conning back even tho I've only taking back 3 out of about 300, maybe they sourced cheaper ones just
